1 – Full
Full Nofull This qualifier can only be used if table, index, or index prefix cardinality statistics are being displayed. If this qualifier is specified, the following cardinality information is displayed: o Actual cardinality Displays the current table, index, or index prefix cardinality value. o Stored cardinality Displays the table, index, or index prefix cardinality value stored in the system relations. o Difference between the stored and actual cardinality values This value is negative if the stored cardinality is less than the actual cardinality. o Percentage cardinality difference from the actual value This value is calculated by dividing the difference between the stored and actual cardinality values by the actual cardinality value. It is negative if the stored cardinality is less than the actual cardinality. The default value is Nofull.
2 – Indexes
Indexes[=(index-list)] Noindex Specifies the index or indexes for which statistics are to be displayed. If you do not specify an index-list, statistics for all indexes defined for the tables specified with the Tables qualifier are displayed. If you specify an index-list, statistics are displayed only for the named indexes. If you specify the Noindex qualifier, statistics are not displayed for any indexes. The default is the Indexes qualifier without an index-list.
3 – Log
Log Nolog Log=file-name Specifies whether the display of statistics are to be logged. Specify the Log qualifier to have the information displayed to SYS$OUTPUT. Specify the Log=file-spec qualifier to have the information written to a file. The Nolog qualifier is valid syntax, but is ignored by Oracle RMU. The default is the Log qualifier.
4 – Statistics
Statistics Statistics[=(options)] Specifies the type of statistics you want to display for the items specified with the Tables, System_Relations, and Indexes qualifiers. If you specify the Statistics qualifier without an options list, all statistics are displayed for the items specified. If you specify the Statistics qualifier with an options list, Oracle RMU displays the types of statistics described in the following list. If you specify more than one option, separate the options with commas and enclose the options within parentheses. The Statistics qualifier options are: o Cardinality Displays the table cardinality for the tables specified with the Tables and System_Relations qualifiers and the index and index prefix cardinalities for the indexes specified with the Indexes qualifier. o Workload Displays the Column Group, Duplicity Factor, and Null Factor workload statistics for the tables specified with the Tables and System_Relations qualifiers. o Storage Displays the following statistics: - Table Row Clustering Factor for the tables specified with the Tables qualifier - Index Key Clustering Factor, the Index Data Clustering Factor, and the Average Index Depth for the indexes specified with the Indexes qualifier.
5 – System Relations
System_Relations Nosystem_Relations The System_Relations qualifier specifies that optimizer statistics are to be displayed for system tables (relations) and their associated indexes. If you do not specify the System_Relations qualifier, or if you specify the Nosystem_Relations qualifier, optimizer statistics are not displayed for system tables or their associated indexes. Specify the Noindex qualifier if you do not want statistics displayed for indexes defined on the system tables. The default is the Nosystem_Relations qualifier.
6 – Tables
Tables Tables=(table-list) Notables Specifies the table or tables for which optimizer statistics are to be displayed. If you specify a table-list, optimizer statistics for those tables and their associated indexes are displayed. If you do not specify the Tables qualifier, or if you specify the Tables qualifier but do not provide a table-list, optimizer statistics for all tables and their associated indexes in the database are displayed. If you specify the Notables qualifier, optimizer statistics for tables are not displayed. Specify the Noindex qualifier if you do not want statistics displayed for indexes defined on the specified tables. The Tables qualifier is the default.
7 – Threshold
Threshold=options Nothreshold The Threshold qualifier can only be used in conjunction with the Full qualifier. If this qualifier is used, an additional Threshold column is added to the display. You can specify the following options with the Threshold qualifier: o Percent=n The value for Percent=n can be an integer value from 0 to 99. The default value for n is 0. If Percent=n is not specified or if a percent value of 0 is specified, any percentage difference from the actual cardinality value is flagged as "*over*" in the output column. If a percent value of 1 to 99 is specified, any percentage difference from the actual cardinality value that is greater than the percent value specified is flagged as "*over*" in the output column. In the report, the Threshold column displays those cardinality values in which the percent difference exceeds the specified value. If the threshold is not exceeded, the column is blank. If the threshold is exceeded, the column shows the string "*over*". o Log={All|Over_Threshold} If Log is not specified or if Log=All is specified, all cardinality values are displayed. If Log=Over_Threshold is specified, only cardinality values that exceed the threshold percentage are flagged as "*over*" in the output column.
